What’s interesting here is that most of them are HOWTO style articles that got their traffic via search engines and from a few high profile referring sites. The top article is an exception: it’s a rant about build systems for Java that obviously struck a nerve. People submitted it to Reddit and DZone multiple times. It’s a bit sad though that none of my own favorites made it into top 5.

Anyway, this concludes my second year as a blogger. It’s been fun and there’s still a lot of topics I’d like to cover. Thank you for reading and have a happy new year!
